1.2 Introduction
The MVME5500 is a single-board computer based on the PowerPC MPC7457 processor and
the Marvell GT-64260B host bridge with a dual PCI interface and memory controller. On-board
payload includes two PMC slots, two SDRAM banks, an expansion connector for two additional
banks of SDRAM, 8MB boot Flash ROM, one 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, one 10/100 Ethernet
port, 32MB expansion Flash ROM, two serial ports, NVRAM and a real-time clock.
1
The MVME5500 interfaces to a VMEbus system via its P1 and P2 connectors and contains two
IEEE 1386.1 PCI mezzanine card (PMC) slots. The PMC slots are 64-bit and support both front
and rear I/O.
Additionally , the MVME5500 is user-configurable b y setting on-board jumpers. Two I/O modes
are possible: PMC mode or SBC mode (also called 761 or IPMC mode). The SBC mode uses
the IPMC712 I/O PMC and the MVME712M transition module, or the IPMC761 I/O PMC and
the MVME761 transition modu le . The SBC mode is bac kw a rds compat ib le wi th the M VME761
transition module and the P2 adapter card (excluding PMC I/O routing) used on the MVME5100
product. This mode is accomplished by configuring the on-board jumpers and by attaching an
IPMC761 PMC in PMC slot 1. Secondary Ether net is configured to the rear.
PMC mode is backwards compatible with the MVME5100 and is accomplished by configuring
the on-board jumpers.
1.3 Getting Started
This section provides an overview of the steps necessary to install and power up the
MVME5500 and a brief section on unpacking and ESD precautions.

Configuring the Hardware Hardware Preparation and Installation
ESD
Emerson strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a
conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic components,
such as disk drives, computer boards, and memory modules can be extremely
sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). After removing the component from its
protective wrapper or from the system, place the component flat on a grounded,
static-free surface (and, in the cas e of a board, component side up). Do not slide the
component over any surface.
If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from ESD by
wearing an antistatic wrist strap (available at electr onics stores) that is attached to an
active electrical ground. Note that a system chassis may not be grounded if it is
unplugged.
Personal Injury or Death
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this equipment.
Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.
1.6 Configuring the Hardware
This section discusses certain hardware and software tasks that may need to be performed
prior to installing the board in a chassis.
To produce the desired configuration and ensure proper operation of the MVME5500, you may
need to carry out certain hardware modifications before installing the module.
Most options on the MVME5500 are software configurable. Configuration changes are made
by setting bits in control registers after the board is installed in a system.
Jumpers and switches are used to control those options that are not software configurable.
These settings are described fur t her on in this section. If you are resetting the board jumpers
or switches from their default settings, it is important to verify that all settings are reset properly.

1.6.2 Ethernet 2, PMC/SBC Mode, and P2 I/O Selection Headers (J6,
J7, J28, J32, J34, J97 – J110)
All of the headers described below are used in conjunction with each other to select various
modes of operation for 10/100BaseT Ethernet, PMC/SBC mode, and P2 I/O mode.
1.6.2.1 Ethernet
Four 3-pin planar headers (J6, J7, J100, J101) and four 2-pin planar headers (J34, J97, J98,
J99) are for 10/100/BaseT Ethernet 2 selection.
Ethernet 1 is the Gigabit Ethernet port and is front panel only.
20
MVME55006E Single-Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800A37D)
Ethernet 2, PMC/SBC Mode, and P2 I/O Selection Headers (J6, J7, J28, J32, J34, J97 – J110) Hardware
For J6, J100, J7 and J101, install jumpers across pins 2-3 on all four headers for rear P2
Ethernet. For front-panel Ethernet, install jumpers across pins 1-2 on all four headers.
If the rear P2 Ethernet is selected by jumpers J6, J7, J100, and J101, the Ether n e t
signals also connect to PMC 1 user I/O connector J14. If a PMC card is plugged into
PMC slot 1, there may be a conflict between the I/O from the PMC card and the rear
Ethernet signals. This conflict does not occur with the IPMC761 or IPMC712 modules.
For J34, J97, J98 and J99, no jumpers are installed for front-panel Ethernet. For rear P2
Ethernet, install jumpers across pins 1-2 on all four headers when in SBC/IPMC761 mode.
1.6.2.2 PMC/SBC Mode Selection
The MVME5500 is set at the factory for PMC mode. The SBC/IPMC761 mode should only be
selected when using the IPMC761 module in conju nct io n w it h the MVME 76 1 transition
module.The PMC mode should be selected when using PMC modules with specific user I/O in
conjunction with the corresponding transition module. PMC mode should also be selected when
using PrPMC modules.
Two 3-pin planar headers (J28, J32) control the supply of +/- 12 v olts to the P2 connector; one
or both of these voltages are required by the MVME712 or MVME761 module when operating
in SBC mode. For PMC mode, jumpers are installed across pins 1-2 on both headers. For
SBC/IPMC761 mode, install jumpers across pins 2-3 on both headers. For SBC/IPMC712
mode, install a jumper across pins 2-3 for J32 and install a jumper across pins 1-2 for J28.
Product Damage
When J28 is configured for SBC/IPMC mode, –12V is supplied to P2 pin A30. If there
is an incompatible board plugged into this P2 slot, damage may occur.
When J32 is configured for SBC/IPMC mode, +12V is supplied to P2 pin C7. If there is
an incompatible board plugged into this P2 sl ot, damage may occur.
1.6.2.3 P2 I/O Selection
Nine 3-pin planar headers (J102 –J110) are for P2 I/O selection. Jumpers are installed across
pins 1-2 on all nine headers when in PMC mode. Install jumpers across pins 2-3 on all nine
headers when in SBC/IPMC761 or SBC/IPMC712 mode to connect the e xtended SCSI signals
to P2.
